For example, with a setting in nova.conf of "disk_cachemodes=network=writeback": Expected result: # virsh dumpxml <instance> | grep cache <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='writeback' discard='unmap'/> <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='writeback' discard='unmap'/> <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='writeback' discard='unmap'/> <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='writeback' discard='unmap'/> Actual result: # virsh dumpxml <instance> | grep cache <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='none' discard='unmap'/> <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='none' discard='unmap'/> <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='none' discard='unmap'/> <driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='none' discard='unmap'/> This is a regression in pike [1] that was also backported to ocata and newton.
